This was the first anti-theist quote I heard of. I loved it ever since.
If you are truly atheists, why do you search for an invisible scapegoat?
It's people who murder, it's people who make violent games, it's people who steal, it's people who hide their crimes, it's courts and judges that imprison wrong people, it's people who are corrupt and egoistic and would rather concentrate on their own profit than other's, etc.
People people people. If there's no God as you claim, then why there's so much pain on the Earth? It's here because PEOPLE decide to do evil and spread daily theatrical shows about violence, greed and other similar glorified acts instead of beaming with advertisement of charities, help to others and generally some altruism.
So why do you search for an invisible scapegoat? Why? The answer is very simple:
because WE, YOU, THEM, as people REFUSE to take RESPONSIBILITY for what have been done. The truth is quite simple.
I agree with you, and might add that this comes into hand when in regards with Politics. Who do they blame for the US recession? President Obama. Who do they blame for no jobs? President Obama. People think he's in complete control but his power is very limited. okay BTT,
We all look for someone else to blame, someone to take credit, someone who is a leader (God). 'Sin' is just humanity. A sinless society would no longer be considered human, it's always going to be there, as is making mistakes as a human being.
However, he is responsible for the 1.4 trillion deficit(or whatever the amount now, because I stopped keeping track)
